FAQs

What if I’m not flexible?

This is the most common misconception that prevents people from coming to a yoga class. Yoga is not about how flexible you are, but about strengthening your body and spine in all directions. All you have to do is try the right way, go to your personal edge and you will get 100% benefits.

Why the heated room?
The room is intentionally heated to warm your muscles and allow you to work more deeply and safely into the postures. The heat also:

Detoxifies the body through sweating which flushes toxins from the body.

Protects muscles for deeper stretching.

Thins the blood to clear circulatory system.

Increases heart rate for a better cardiovascular workout.

Promotes thixotrophy, the softening of fascia and muscle tissue, into an optimal state for reorganization.

What if I cannot stand the heat?
In the beginning you might find that the heat, combined with the postures, intense. You can always sit through a pose if necessary, and then start again. Avoid leaving the room during class so you can become acclimated to the heat. You will get used to it quickly and will soon love it. It will help your practice progress quickly.

Will I get a cardiovascular workout and can I lose weight?
No matter what your fitness level, you will find our classes challenging and motivating. Each posture in our yoga classes combines flexibility, strength, endurance and balance to work your whole body from your bones to your skin. With persistence, patience, and dedication, you can lose inches and develop muscle tone and strength that might never come from other forms of exercise. Practicing yoga draws bodily systems into harmony, regulates metabolism, curbs unhealthy cravings and normalizes weight. With consistent practice, yogis enjoy general slimming all over- clothes fit!

How often should I practice?
You will need a few classes to acclimate to the hot room. We recommend that you take as many classes as possible during your introductory period to feel the benefits immediately. You can use the equation Frequency + Intensity = The Result. With greater frequency of practice and dedication you will find a greater result. You can practice as often as you like, even everyday. To see your body and mind transform right before your eyes, it is recommended to come at least 3 times per week. But even if you come once, you will feel the effects right away!
